This test is flaky for torch >= 1.8.0.

[refactor] Use logging in place of print statements, remove unused functions and other minor refactoring changes. (#461)

* fix pipe logging and other cleanups

* more log/debug changes

* [chores]: CI py39 on GPU and more efficiency

* add test list files

* fix

* add test list files

* split benchmark run into 2 runs

* fix 1.8 version and balance benchmarks

* fix

* fix

* fix

* fix

* recording tests

* py39 install fix

* test again

* move tests

* reorg tests

* skip tests for torch 1.8 due to an upstream bug

* removed __init__.py from tests since it confuses pytest

* Revert "removed __init__.py from tests since it confuses pytest"

This reverts commit 7e156ba33dfaa5ed052031780613ec0cb57a45b0.

* don't include __init__ in file list

* notes on __init__.py and added missing ones

* fixed mypy in a test file

* balance test runtime

* better pip install

* balance more

* pip fix

* balance

* balance more, all test should finish within 20m now

* minor license update

* trying cu102

* more doc and addressed Ben's comments

* debugging

* debugging...

* Add AMPnet implementation (clean version)

* Move ampnet to experimental

* Move stuff around pipeline

* Address review comments and fix pre-commit errors

* Refactor and modify delegate functionality

* Modify header in pipe.py

* catching properly a given test failing if not enough gpus

* fallback on internal pytorch numbering

Adds support for:
* Reused layers (e.g. for weight sharing)
* Lazily-constructed layers
* Single-process control via PipeRPCWrapper
* PipelineStyle.AsyncScheudle, which lays the foundation for asynchronous pipeline work by introducing an event loop for each rank/worker to process either activations or gradients as they arrive

Also added examples for multi-process and PipeRPCWrapper

Adds support for distributing pipeline stages across multiple processes (and therefore multiple machines)
* Adds a style argument to the Pipe constructor, defaulting to PipelineStyle.SingleProcess, but also supporting PipelineStyle.MultiProcess
* Added support for lazy construction of modules (see lazy_construction for an example)
* Added two implementations of inter-process communication: one based on rpc with globally visible queues, one based on send/recv
* Copied all the relevant tests from tests/pipe to tests/pipe_process and modified them to exercise PipelineStyle.MultiProcess
